20th century person; over-educated and superannuated. I like old dead languages, ancient history, fighting fascism, the LA Galaxy, the Seahawks, the NWSL, the WNBA, the Rolling Stones, Star Trek, and probably other stuff I haven't thought to mention yet.
This does appear to be the problem in a nutshell. And an especially stupid nutshell at that: If they hate women's sports as much as they clearly do, why are they worried about some dude buying a wig and claiming to be a dudette???
Norm Charlatan@normcharlatan.bsky.social · yesterdayPeople who haven’t watched the WNBA because they think women’s sports suck believe Juwanna Mann is a documentary.
I don't know why the MLS video feed still pretends they offer a home radio option. It hasn't worked since before the World Cup break. Cruel to get our hopes up like that. #LAGalaxy
Have I mentioned lately that I love Jess Fishlock? 💙💛 #NWSL #WitnessTheReign
I really need the Reign to work out that going up 2-0 is good, but it doesn't mean time to bunker. #NWSL #WitnessTheReign
Especially when the "legitimate questions" all seem to be along the lines of "But what if LeBron decides he's a woman and wants to play in the #WNBA?" This is a hypothetical that literally never, ever happens, to sell discrimination against a very small, very poorly understood group of people.
Maeby@maebynever.bsky.social · 4d agopeople with “legitimate questions” are either uninformed and can be educated, or they’re just transphobes address the questions first instead of acting like having questions provides moral space to act transphobic #wnba #wbb
Ugh, then Beber gets one for the other team (in the 13th minute). #NWSL #WitnessTheReign
Was still in shock over Mia Fishel getting a goal in the run of play when Dahlien, who set Fishel up, scored one of her own to made it 2-0!!! 😃 💙💛 #NWSL #WitnessTheReign
Led Zeppelin fucking sucks. Just because something is loud doesn't make it good.

Also, I can't quite shake the impression that players get a fair amount more leeway if they're more, um, pale? 🤔 #WNBA
Nakisha M. Lewis (she/her)@naklew.bsky.social · 5d agoThese refs will give certain players a tech for bouncing the ball and others nothing for screaming in their faces. I can’t. #wnba
In much the same way that it's very very possible that the Earth is round and orbits the Sun.

Marcinkowski is called for a foul in the box in stoppage time. BUT HE FUCKING SAVES THE PK!!!!! 💛💙🤍 #LAGalaxy Game ends 1-1. At least we didn't lose.
Extended clusterfuck in front of the #LAGalaxy goal allows the Crapflakes to get a tying score. VAR seems to show offside and a hand ball but, as always, VAR is just there to make sure the Galaxy don't get any calls.
Paintsil scores off a counterattack set up by The Harb and Reus! 💛💙🤍 #LAGalaxy
This evening's #LAGalaxy. Very pleasantly surprised to see Reus in the lineup; he looked pretty hurt the other night.
Elgersma with the cosmetic goal 85 minutes in! #LAGalaxy
Miller should've shot that. No one else was ever going to do anything with it. #LAGalaxy
And now it's 3-0 on a counterattack/breakaway. Fucking pathetic. #LAGalaxy
Then Garces gets pissed, kicks a ball away, and gets thrown out of the game. Is he a hothead, or is he not very bright? Yes, I'd say. #LAGalaxy
So, at halftime, our team is playing like dookie, and one of our best players is hopping around on one leg. And the ref is reffing like dookie. The #LAGalaxy did sign Kyōgo Furuhashi yesterday, although his paperwork isn't sorted out yet. Anyone know if he's very good?
